Raw Blame History

[:Idea:]
* Samuel Bianchini, Peter Hanappe and Johnathan Lee
[:Development:]
Many people contributed to FluidSynth, send suggestions or bug
fixes. The project was started by Peter Hanappe who is the main
author. Below you'll find a summery of contributions.
* Peter Hanappe. files: sticked it's hand in all files.
* Josh Green contributed a lot of code directly or indirectly through
the Swami and Smurf code base. The soundfont loader is
completely based on his code. He also wrote the alsa sequencer
driver. He made many changes and bug fixes, but above all, he's one
of the driver forces behind the synthesizer. files:
iiwu_defsfont.{c,h}, iiwu_alsa{c,h}.
* Stephane Letz from Grame wrote most of the MidiShare driver, all of
the PortAudio driver, ported iiwusynth to MacOS X, and sent in many
fixes. files: iiwu_midishare.c, iiwu_portaudio.c
* Markus Nentwig (re-)designed the resonant filter, the chorus, the
LADSPA subsystem, the MIDI router, optimized for SSE, made many
changes and bug fixes and got the synthesizer to actually work. Most
importantly, he used it on stage to make music. files:
iiwu_ladspa.{c,h}, iiwu_cmd.{c,h}, iiwu_voice.{c,h}, iiwu_synth.c,
iiwu_sse.h, iiwu_dsp_core.h, iiwu_rev.{c,h}, and basically all the
other files.
* Antoine Schmitt added the sequencer support, support for sample
loading (RAM Sfont), developed the
MacroMedia Director Xtra, and send in many many bug reports. Thanks
to Antoine, the synthesizer finds its way to multi-media
developers. files: in bindings/director/ and iiwu_seq.{c,h},
iiwu_event.{c,h}, iiwu_event_priv.h, iiwu_seqbind.{c,h},
iiwu_ramsfont.{c,h}
* Bob Ham added the code for "bank select" MIDI messages and send code
to define the synth's ALSA sequencer client name. files:
iiwu_midi.c, iiwu_alsa.c, iiwusynth.c, iiwusynth.h.
* Tim Goetze sent many patches and implemented the all_notes_off. He
also sent his code for the new ALSA driver. files: iiwu_synth.c,
iiwu_chan.c, iiwu_voice.c, iiwu_alsa.c
* Norbert Schnell from Ircam's jMax Team wrote most of the jMax/FTS
interface in a record time. He also pointed me to the technique of
using a lookup table for the interpolation coefficients. file:
iiwu_fts.c, iiwu_synth.c
* The initial alsa driver was based on the jMax alsa driver by
Francois Dechelle and his Real-time Team at Ircam
(http://www.ircam.fr/jmax). The jMax code was based upon Ardour's
alsa_device.cc by Paul Barton-Davis. file: iiwu_alsa.c
* I copied code from the glib library to the smurf files. The goal was
to make iiwusynth independent from any library for maximum
portability.
* The midi device uses code from jMax's alsarawmidi.c file and from
Smurf's midi_alsaraw.c by Josh Green. Josh also added support for
the alsa sequencer interface. file: iiwu_alsa.c
* The reverb algorithm was written by Jezar
(http://www.dreampoint.co.uk). His code is public domain. The code
was translated to C by Peter Hanappe. file: iiwu_synth.c
* The original code for the chorus effect was written by Juergen
Mueller and sundry contributors.
* I used Martin Udd<64>n's midi package. His files are integrated into
the iiwu_midi file. Martin Udd<64>n <nanook@lysator.liu.se> file:
iiwu_midi.c
* I copied some interpolation algorihms that I found in the music-dsp
archives (http://www.smartelectronix.com/musicdsp). They were
written by Joshua Scholar and others. file: iiwu_synth.c
* Bug fixes where sent in by: Werner Schweer, Dave Philips, Anthony
Green, Jake Commander, Fernando Pablo Lopez-Lezcano, and Raoul
Bonisch.
* I copied the macros to {increment,decrement} the 64-bit fixed point
phase from Mozilla's macros to handle the Long-long type (64-bit
signed integer type). Mozilla NSPR library, www.mozilla.org. file:
iiwu_phase.h
